A Mild New Year’s Eve With Snow . . . . .

Today begins much colder weather than what we’ve seen the past week.  Along with that comes snow.  We are having a moderate snow shower at this time and it is starting to cover the ground.  Highs are expected to reach the mid 40s so I don’t think it will last long.  Only an inch or less is in the forecast.  We are keeping an eye on Monday of next week where some forecasters are saying that we could get a good size snowstorm.  It’s still too early to really predict but the computer models all seem to think it could happen.

Our 1:30 PM temperature is 33°F, the humidity is 97%, and the pressure is 29.79 in and falling.  Winds are from the North at 0-4 mph and visibility is only one mile.  The dew point is 33°F.  Yesterday’s high was 48°F and the overnight low was 28°F  Average temps for this date are 31°F/19°F.  Record temps for Dec. 30 are 61°F (1936) and -11°F (1976).  Sunrise was at 8:09 AM and sunset will be at 5:12 PM.
